Bohemia Mines - Campers hear vocalizations & breathing from very close-range heavy, bipedal visitor
Account
The witness and a relative were camping in the Bohemia Mine area and sleeping in a tent at night. They heard something approaching on two feet, then high-pitched whoop sounds near their vehicle, followed by breathing and quiet movement right beside the tent and heavy running footsteps when it left. The presence circled the tent and returned repeatedly through the night. In the morning they found no tracks due to forest litter.
